Plants started getting real bushy a couple of days after topping. Low Stress Trained all the plants at the end of the week by tying them down using rubber coated garden wire to spread out the newly grown tops. Also spaced out each plant evenly on the tray and turned on the other 2 PB2000 LED lights I had ready to go.

She's starting to bulk up, and I've cut my nutrients back in anticipation of the flush. She is a beauty and I love the colors she is displaying. I'm starting to get a distinct smell of burnt tires and rotten organic from her, with just a hint of sweetness. I love the smell! I added some plant ties this week to hold some of her branches up. Many of her branches are starting to droop under the weight of the buds, but nothing I can't handle. No problems this week and she is looking great.

D75 (04/02/2021): Glue Gelato has been in the closet for 24h. Banana Kush is ripening everyday. I might place her in the closet with light ON for one more week when Glue Gelato will be chop and in the tent drying. RH% and temperature are fine in the closet at the moment and it does not smell that strong with Glue Gelato inside. That give me an option to continue Banana Kush for more days in it. - temp in the tent: 22C light ON ; 18-19C light OFF - temp in the closet: 18-19C - water: approx. 3L of tap water for Banana Kush - RH in the tent: 42% light ON ; 45% light OFF - RH in the closet: 42-44% D76 (05/02/2021): Glue Gelato has been in the closet for 48h. I will chop her tonight! I will place Banana Kush in the closet with light ON. She needs at least one more week I guess - temp in the tent: 22C light ON ; 18-19C light OFF - temp in the closet: 18-19C - water: approx. 2L of tap water for Banana Kush - RH in the tent: 40% light ON ; 46% light OFF - RH in the closet: 42-44% D77 (06/02/2021): Banana Kush is in the closet and the environment is good at the moment. - temp in the closet: 18-19C - no water - RH in the closet: 42-44% D78 (07/02/2021): Banana Kush buds are getting fat. When I squeeze them I can tell that they are getting denser. She drink less water which is a sign she's getting closer to the end. - temp in the closet: 18-20C - no water - RH in the closet: 40% D79 (08/02/2021): I gave around 3L of tap water. Trichomes still look cloudy with no amber but I can see more of them and they look bigger. - temp in the closet: 20-21C - water: 3L of tap water - RH in the closet: 35-40% D80 (09/02/2021): She get frostier everyday! It's beautiful to see! She definitely have more trichomes than she had last week when she still was in the tent. The trichomes of Banana Kush are not yet at the same stage where Glue Gelato's trichomes was when I chopped Glue Gelato. I'm glad that I waited and that I did not chop both at the same time. - temp in the closet: 20-21C - no water - RH in the closet: 35-40% D81 (10/02/2021): I gave approximately 3L of tap water. She's a beauty but she's not ready. I said one more week last week... I say the same haha one more week! 😅😏 - temp in the closet: 20-21C - water: tap water, 130 PPM, PH7.0 - RH in the closet: 35-40%

I really liked this variety, it grew in mixed soil, it developed well in vegetation, the buds are dense, it smells sweet, I really liked this variety, the buds should be dried in the dark at 18 degrees at 50% humidity

Was an amazing experience overall. The girls all did great. No complaints. Training went well. Topped twice and lollipopped the lower growth. All the buds, even the lower growth, are large. So frosty too. Amazing overall and will have to grow again as long as I like the smoke.

Super easy week, just watering the ladies when they need it. Still concerned about the humidity so I’m going to start using my dehumidifier outside of the tent. I’ll monitor the humidity each day and set my humidifier on a schedule based upon the data collected. Soon I’ll be adding in another layer of netting to help support the branches and space them out more for better airflow and a more “sea of green” look. I usually vegetate for longer but I wanted to see if I could shorten my grow times and produce about the same results. Time will tell!

Day 65, 14th of November 2020: Amazing week.... RQS Wedding Gelato does not strech a lot and pistils coming out nicely.... Original Sensible Seeds has amazing gentics they are so strechy except Black Ghost OG, rest of them crazyyyyyyy..... I also broke two of the sides from Gelato Original Sensible Seeds but fixed with tape and now all good lol 🤣🤣🤣 Pre flowers out and I really hope they stop growing lol. I also noticed that the Original Sensible Seeds strains have nice purple colours of the fan leave's stem. All the same fertilization happens every 2nd day with the mix above and ratio. One more thing: I set the lamp 15 minutes shorter to switch off earlier so they receive 11:45 of darkness. I would like to imitate the nature when longer nights come with time till the 4th week (when they will receive 13 hours darkness a day 15 minutes minus 4 times = 1hour) so every week 15 min longer darkness for 4 weeks and then back to 12/12 to have bigger buds from the 4th week....

16 days of slow drying each plant with the environment controlled inside the tent with 2 meters. I have two fans on, pointing at the floor to circulate the air temps - 20 - 23 º humid - 50- 60 %

------SETUP------ -HOMEBOX TRIANGLE+ .4sqm -BOSSLED LIGHTS 250W REAL -INTAKE FAN HIGH PRO - 107 m³/h -EXHAUST FAN PROFAN - 220 m³/h -TWO SMALL VENT FANS -HUMIDIFYER WHEN NEEDED -AC IN THE ROOM -15L SMARTPOTS -50%PERLITE 50%SPHAGNUM PEAT MOSS ------STRAIN------ GYO GREEN AK47 = GG AK47. The finished plant is sativa-dominant, of medium height, and produces great yields after a relatively short flowering period of around 60 days. The plant produces an extremely powerful odour and a memorable high. The THC levels are darkly dangerous 20% plus, as evidenced by the resinous crystals that coat the plant from root to tip. /BOUQUET Be careful! AK47 fires out an unusually strong, sweet and fruity aroma. /EFFECTS AK47 will leave you relaxed and mellow. This sativa-dominant hybrid delivers a steady and long-lasting cerebral buzz that keeps you mentally alert and engaged in creative or social activities. ------GENERAL COMMENT------ The first 7 days of this grow is almost complete, Blueberry and the AK47 germinated fine, had some issues with the Candy Kush Express, so the last seed is germinating, and seams that it will emerge soon! I'm optimistic, so basically till now we will do a free seed run, since this ones came with the genetics I purchased from seedsman and gyo green. 😎😛 -251217 First feed with a very light nutrient dose. Will implement some cal mag next water. Humidity has been a little hard to control, is oscillating a lot. ------GG.AK47 COMMENT------ So for the sake of productivity the setup is posted as an image as well as the strain quick info. I wanted to try the germination plugs and must say that i din't like the results, so i will go back in the germination technique by using straight soilless after the soaking in water for 12-20hrs. She took a bit to emerge, and was born with a cut in the cotyledons, as is possible to see in the pics, leaves are sharp, and unbalanced as a early mutation, can't id how this will evolve, makes me curious, and here nothing is trow away, if they get out of the medium, my goal is to obtain the buds. 😉 Happy growing and good holidays! 2018 is approaching, good vibes and a lot of light to all!

Que pasa familia, vamos con la sexta semana de floración de estas Tropicana poison F1 de Sweetseeds. Vamos al lío , las 3 plantas seleccionadas fueron trasplantadas a su maceta definitiva, ya superaron el shock por el trasplante, estas semanas las paremos todas a floración. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración 12h de luz, el foco está al 100% de potencia. Las jodidas estiraron demasiado, veremos como acaban, no me gustan tan altas. Las flores están cogiendo un olor bastante curioso que todavía no puedo llegar a describir, espero la siguiente semana poder dar algo de información. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Still in the process of drying and curing I wait for the snap Branch drying and they're not there yet but I two of the branches were ready and I cut them and taste them even though not cure was smooth and delicious. I did not collect popcorns I kept everything in small pieces and put it in a pot for edibles. One of them main colas waiting 23.75 grams. After curing this it is a very enjoyable and smooth blueberry smoke with a very strong THC content plus the very big yield and a very good recovery from abuse make this plant a real champ
